Location: 6 String Ranch		The interesting thing about the 6 string is the arched top. Nice idea but it never sounded very good. The arch made the tops too stiff.

Location: Atlanta,Ga.		Bill, do you remember these two from the days of testing the adamases at the factory..I think the 12 string was the only prototype adamas 12 string before serial number 26??
I can see what your talking about the archtop making the guitar too stiff and not sounding that good.The 12 string actually sounds wonderful......I never really play them much,just a piece of "ovation history".
